2013 fox cities institute for educators catalog

My name is Brooke Parish, Manager of the Fox Cities Institute for Educators. As you can see we’ve made a few changes. These changes have been implemented with the intention of continuing to offer you a first class profes-sional development experience, while expanding our offerings. This year we are excited to offer two strands: The original offerings of STEM/Literacy and an innovative Business Immersion experience. Both strands seek to pro-mote student achievement through professional development of PreK-12 educators. Hands-on learning is empha-sized to help teachers engage students in collaborative problem solving and higher order thinking. Educators will select a strand and from that stand a courses to which they will devote their week’s study.

The Institute promotes the world of work and relevance to the classroom. On Wednesday morning, July 17th, par-ticipants in the STEM/Literacy strand will tour two businesses while the Business Immersion class will have a more in depth experience spending three days in three different businesses.

The Fox Cities Institute for Educators is a collaborative effort of the Competitive Workforce Alliance, a division of the Fox Cities Chamber of Commerce & Industry, Inc., University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh and local school districts.

MATH

M.A.T.H. Interventions – Tiers, Not Tears, In Your Elementary Classroom Grade Levels: K-5 Subject: Math Instructor: Pat Koniecki, Math and Technology Horizons, LLC , Edinburg, TX

M aterials A ctivities T echnology H ome

You’ve heard about the “tiers” of intervention. In this session, we will look at various ways to reduce the “tears” of kids who are struggling in math.

We will work with various math Materials, create and participate in hands-on math Activities, explore Technology through websites and SMARTboard activities, and share ideas that can be used at Home.

We will create some independent learning centers that will be ready for use in your classroom from day one. Some pieces of children’s literature will be used to integrate reading and writing in your math classroom. The math games that we play will give kids opportunities to practice math skills while having fun. Wonderful websites are available for teachers and kids. We will journey through some of those, and we’ll explore SMARTboard activities, as well.

I will bring lots of goodies, but you will want to bring your math TE, one piece of literature you like to use, and one noncommercial game you play in your classroom (if you have one). If you have a laptop and/or flashdrive, bring those, too.

Transforming Your Secondary Mathematics Classroom Grade Levels: 9-12 Subject: Math

Instructor: Mike Tamblyn, Math Teacher at Whitewater High School,

Whitewater, WI

The Common Core State Standards for Mathematics will require our students to have a rigorous coherent understanding of mathematics beyond what many have had before. How can we accomplish this? By using technology like Geometer’s Sketchpad to explore mathematical concepts to their fullest, by tackling rich problems that motivate all students, by using teaching techniques that empower our learners, and by having students construct their understanding of mathematics in order to gain ownership over the material. Be part of a workshop that will explore all of these important processes.

After this course, teachers will be able to: 1.) Teach concepts that illustrate the CCSS mathematical practices 2.) Use technology to enhance their instruction and student learning 3.) Use questioning techniques that deepen student understandings 4.) Develop activities that encourage student discoveries

Communicating and Collaborating with Google Docs and Sites Grade Levels: K-12 Subject: Technology Instructor: Sharon Ellner, Lannoye Elementary School, Pulaski, WI

In the Google Docs and Sites for Educators workshop, participants will learn about the wide variety of free tools available from Google. While many of us are aware of Google as a search engine, there are many additional tools that promote collaboration and sharing between educators and students. In this workshop, educators will learn how web 2.0 tools, like those available from Google, provide teachers and students with the opportunity to create and collaborate easily. Participants will learn how to use Google Docs, Google Forms, Google Presentations, Google Sites and several other Google tools. Throughout the workshop, many examples will be shared showing how these tools can help teachers and students.

Participants will learn how to use these tools and create sample projects giving them practice in using the tools. Each participant will develop a customized action plan to demonstrate how they will implement three or more of these tools in their educational setting for the next school year.

Workshop objectives include: 1.) Participants will learn about and use

Google Tools throughout the course to see how these web 2.0 tools can be embedded into teaching and learning.

2.) Participants will learn how to have students collaborate through the use of Google Tools.

3.)Participants will learn how to collaborate through word processing, spreadsheet and slide show documents.

4.) Participants will learn how to use Google Forms to easily conduct surveys and share the results.

5.) Participants will develop an action plan for using Google Tools for teaching and learning.

To be successful in this workshop,

Beyond Behavior Management: Empowering Teachers to Connect with All Students Grade Levels: Pre K-8 Subject: Classroom management; mental health

Instructor: Julie Martzke, Psychologist/Adjunct Professor, Hamline University, Minneapolis, MN

Over the years when I’ve taught classes about students with special needs, the resounding reaction from regular education teachers has been, “But these are great strategies for ALL students.” How do we take what we know from the world of special education and help us connect with kids who may not be identified with a disorder or disability but still have some of the same needs? This course will pull information from what we know about how anxiety, depression, attention difficulties,

hyperactivity and social disorders, and apply it to your daily classroom practice. Resources are limited and the best way to increase the success of students who are struggling is to empower the teachers who spend the most time with them. We will approach your greatest classroom management issues from a new perspective. The majority of challenging behaviors come from a skill deficit or an unmet need. This class will help you identify those needs in a proactive way so you will be more able to connect with the student and identify strategies that are more likely to be successful.

Course participants will: • Learn how to identify student needs to promote prevention of behaviors • Consider the impact of cultural differences in relation to classroom behaviors • Be introduced to strategies related to common issues seen in their classrooms. This will be tailored toward the needs of participants and may include, but not be limited to anxiety disorders, depression, social disorders, attention and activity disorders, fetal alcohol syndrome, and the impact of stress and poverty on students and families. • Learn practical strategies focusing on motivation, socialization, attention, organization and movement in K-8 classrooms have an opportunity to brainstorm specific plans for specific students.
